There are some problems with Wifi and Lion. I had to re-install Lion on my daughter's Macbook because WIFI was getting mad, it was keeing finding the Wifi and not finding it
Try to re-install Lion ! but before repair permission
May be the Wifi pref file is dammadge
@MS said:
Just use different subnets for your wifi and wired connections, and you should have no problems.
IE, Wifi net 10.0.0.0/24 and wired 10.0.1.0/24
Don't put any gateway address on your wired connection, just leave it empty.
I have tried that and it doesnt make any difference . Also it is happening on my main mac with the other computers off . Ie routing vsl into logic on the same computer so no ethernet wired cables invilved .
Here are my settings Main Mac ethernet settings : Ip address 169.254.1. Subnet 255.255.0.0 no router or dns settings all 3 computers plugged in to a netgear gigabit hub.
Wifi : Ip 192.168.1.67
subnet 255.255.255.0
router 192.168.1.254
the other computers ips are 169.254.1.2 and 1.3 with subnet 255.255.0.0
with no router or dns settings
I tried your subnet 10.0.0.0/24 but it said invalid
Thanks for any more suggestions
both subnet mask should be 255.255.255.0
Look at www.cyrilblanc.fr on the Mac area you have a tutorial
Tried finding the tutorial , no luck. Also tried repairing permissioms and deleting the airport preference in Users library /preferences, still no luck . Found a solution which is to use the internet on the slave computer that is running 10.6 . Annoying that I can't use it on my main mac though
I just got an alert message :
Date: 09/12/2011 15:31:47 Europe/Paris +0200
Local Address: 192.168.0.2
Remote Address: 109.153.125.212
Is it you ?
try this : http://www.cyrilblanc.fr/site_principal/slave_mac.html
/24 is another way of writing "255.255.255.0".
Your settings for the wired connection seem wrong. 169.254.0.0/16 is reserved for private self-assigned IPs, usually created by the interface when no address have been received from DHCP.
I would suggest you to use the following settings:
Computer 1 WIFI: DHCP
Computer 1 Wired: IP 10.0.1.1, subnet 255.255.255.0, no router
Computer 2 WIFI: DHCP
Computer 2 Wired: IP 10.0.1.2, subnet 255.255.255.0, no router
169.254.1.1 is what is recommended on the vsl forum for self assignd ips . In my frustration I have gone back to 10.6 so thanks all for trying to help , maybe when my current project is over , I'll try again , might even have an altiverb update to work in Lion ?
